I had to cut my work off early tonight. My eyes are droopy, the room is dark, and with just a slight glance to the left I can spot my little man asleep in his crib in the video monitor. Watching him sleep so peacefully reminds me of what I wanted to blog about tonight. I didn't want to forget to document some fun developments that we watched Little Mister experience this week.
A few days ago I went for a walk and put some socks on his feet so his little toesies wouldn't burn (I also put sunscreen on his legs, arms and face). When we got back I put him on the floor to play with his toys while I grabbed a hearty breakfast. I sat down on the carpet with him so I can watch him play while I ate. He was sitting there playing so quietly and quite enjoying himself. And then it was brought to my attention that my little baby took off one of his socks and was trying to put it back on. It was so cute. Of course I'm biased but I thought, isn't putting on socks quite advanced for a 10 month old? Yes, he is very smart.
And then there's the cell phone. Mister loves our cell phones. Whenever and wherever it's visual he wants to grab it, stare at it, press the buttons and, of course, stick it in his mouth. But this week he discovered he can do something else with mommy and daddy's phones. He puts it up to his ear!!! Well, his motor skills are still being perfected so really the phone hits behind his ear. But you can tell he is trying to hold it up to his ear like every other person he sees with one of those things.
Man, I love this baby!
One more thing, as I was rocking him and nursing him to sleep tonight I was thinking about the home movies we were just watching at Sissy and Duane's house. So much fun! Then I thought, I need to take more home videos. I don't care what I'm doing (or what I'm wearing). I need to get out the camera and take more pictures and videos of our family--even if it seems inconvenient. This is our lives and anytime in my future I will be glad I have them.
